[Max] Daily Builds / Re: Corona Renderer 6 for 3ds Max - Daily Builds Discussion

« on: 2020-02-07, 10:35:38 »

there seems to be a problem with the dailies whereby when you use the DR and render, when you press cancel the rendering dialogue continues and the VFB disappears leaving the scene in a unresponsive state.

Hi,

We are aware of this one and looking into it.

Thanks,

[Max] Bug Reporting / Re: Corona saving layered EXR on render end

« on: 2020-02-06, 13:39:38 »

Hi,

Okay so it looks like we can finally reproduce this in one way or another. It seems that there are some issues with saving EXR files.

With the help of Frood, we discovered that this is because 3ds Max saves the EXR saving settings locally on the machine and not in the scene.

This can lead to settings getting mixed up when rendering over a network with backburner. I have sent this over to Autodesk and I'm awaiting their response.

In the mean time, it might be best to set a pre-render script in the scene which sets the EXR file saving settings before each render commences. I hope this can be a suitable workaround for the time being.

I hope this information is useful.

Thanks,

Rowan

You can see that Corona + EXR is exactly the same as Scanline + EXR, a weird Max issue - not bound to a specific renderer. And again you can also see the impact of local settings. Case B.1 is the reason for removing the script from here.That post is still valid for me, since I was able to reproduce it with the newest versions available. Only B.2 and A.1 are correct results, B.1 is data loss in the worst case and A.2 creates annoying additional render elements as Corona CXR always does ;)

Good Luck

Hey Frood,

Just to confirm by A.2 and B.1 you mean:

2) BB server local setting autoadd off: 1 layered EXR written (beauty + RE) plus 1 flat EXR (the render element)
and
1) BB server local setting autoadd on: 1 flat EXR (beauty only), NO render element at all

Thanks,

Rowan

[ARCHICAD] Daily Builds / Re: Corona Renderer for ARCHICAD Alpha 4 daily build

image editor doesn't work!

Look here ;)

Hi. When i try to open Corona Image Editor - have this error. I tried to reinstall. Same

Hi and thanks for reporting the issue.


HOTFIX


Run the installer and select Unpack files radio button. This will unpack necessary files to selected folder. Find that folder and go to Corona for ARCHICAD 22 folder. Copy:

• LegionOpenImageDenoise-0.9.0-v141-Release.dll
• LegionTbb-2018.2-v141-Release.dll

Now open your Corona Image editor folder (If you've installed it previously, it's default location is C:\Program Files\Corona\ImageEditor) and paste previously mentioned files.

« on: 2020-01-29, 16:38:53 »

I have the same errors since the previous daily build (from december).
My first thought was that maybe it's because it was a scene converted from vray but at this point it seems like a different problem.
And also if i stop the rendering it's hangs on still rendering and the whole 3dsmax.exe process need to be ended.

Hi,

Please can you send over you scene too? Instructions on how to do this are in my signiture.

[Max] Resolved Bugs / Re: Corona license deactivated mid-render

« on: 2020-01-29, 16:32:25 »

Hi,

Thanks for getting back to me. I may have a solution to this problem to ensure that it doesn't happen again.

I would recommend using the licensing server on a machine which has internet access, now when any machine on the LAN without an active Corona Renderer license starts rendering, it will use the Licensing Server to obtain a license instead of asking for a license.

Full instructions can be found here:
https://coronarenderer.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/5000618553-corona-licensing-server

Let me know if this works for you.

Cheers,

Rowan

Hi,

I have a 2990wx here at it runs with no problems.

2990wx/Asus Prime x399-A/128GB/GTX 1080

I'd recommend updating all of your system drivers and checking to see if there is an available update for your BIOS.

Secondly what is the full specification of your computer?

Thanks,

Rowan
